Purpose of Mission Awareness Week

The purpose of Mission Awareness Week is to promote and stimulate greater understanding and interest in mission and service both on campus and around the world.

Mission Awareness Week at Messiah
During Mission Awareness Week, missions representatives from around the world come to Messiah for a week dedicated to raising awareness of our global community.  As a result, students have the opportunity to attend mission focused chapels, luncheons and dinners with various speakers and representatives, as well as have one-on-one interaction with other students and representatives who share a passion for global change.
